Ed, I've seen your story and just want to say that your transformation is absolutely effing incredible. :heart: I also agree with the "lead by example" bit.

What type of condiments do you like on your buns?

How big is it? Your oven.

This is true. Blackened meat can be quite tasty.

Now now, I didn't say I only ate white meat! That's just tonight. :wink:

Midol and drinking a lot of water helps. I also tend to cut back a little bit on carbs (only because it helps with not retaining water), and watch my sodium, until my TOM passes.

It's important to note that in order to gain a pound of fat, you'd have to be at 3,500 over Maintenance (not just eating 3,500 flat). So that means you'd have to eat 6,200 calories to gain a pound.

Split or no split, the key to gaining strength is progressive loading. I do agree that something like Stronglifts would be very beneficial, though.

It didn't bother me until I added something on my profile stating I only accept FR's that include messages. It just makes it obvious that they didn't even take the time to read my information- and if you didn't read my info, why are you requesting me? :huh:

:huh: :noway:

You seem pleasant. Regarding the OP: I don't have kids and when I started reading this thread, I was of the opinion I would never leash one of my own. However after reading the descriptions of the unruly little ones and wanting to keep them from getting hurt, it may be something I consider in the future. I guess it'll just…

It's so awesome when girls embrace their hips!

Dance!

You don't say? :wink: :laugh:

I'm currently going through a divorce, but marriage was, and still is, very important to me. I just want to do it right next time.

Having this problem also

The best diet isn't a "diet" at all. :wink: Thanks for sharing, OP.

Same here. Calorie/macro data is fine, but it won't pull my weight data.

Please, for the love of all that is good, stop demonizing carbs. If your focus is weight loss ONLY- All you need to worry about is calories in versus out. If your focus is overall fitness/maintaining muscle- Yes, pay attention to your macros. With that being said, everyone has different needs when it comes to Macros. Some…

Lol, it's a photo sharing application. :)

Curious what a profile picture has to do with the bolded part of that quote- and the person you quoted doesn't even have a profile picture. :huh:

Yeah, that was worded funny for me, too. I thought you always weigh/log raw, and don't pay attention the weight after cooking.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the follows on my fitness one. I'd love to get that one fully up and running!

Nut butter, yes- but that's super high in calories. Your best bet, unless you want to gorge yourself on meat all the time (ha) is to go ahead and get a protein powder. There's nothing to be afraid of, and there are probably even "natural" options out there.

Don't lose any more weight. You are already considered underweight, I believe. Eat at maintenance (Google TDEE Calculator to figure this out), and take up lifting/strength training. You can search for Stronglifts 5x5 which is a good beginner's program. Losing more weight will likely not make you happy with the actual…

This is all I want to comment on (since I am 23 and kid-less, I have no perspective on child support obligations) but Adrian Peterson, really? Kind of poor taste to mention him in a thread about children, considered what happened to his son...

Cheese is not peanut butter, therefore your point is invalid.

Jenna Marbles is super hot. 10/10 would flirt/bang/etc. :smokin:
